They look so good, that not many episodes stand out for me that are as good as that!
Possibly most recently the bus crash.
Or the loft fire where Warren died was also good.
most of it is above:D I think with the dog Fire it was so chilling and you cared about the characters that died more then the bus crash
Why did BK kill them off if they were such loved characters?
I think what made this work was that several MAIN cast members were killed off. Or should I say, long-term characters that the viewers actually cared for. The trouble with the latest few explosions/stunts on HO (and some of the victims in the Silas storyline) was they were minor characters or characters who have only been in the show a small amount of time so no huge loss was made.
Impact , He wanted something Big to attract viewers and start off his reign, and it worked:D
wish i could forget it.
god he was such a bum back then.
i think those are the 3 major standout points in my hollyoaks memory - the dog fire (and the build up of rapist!sam), max's funeral, and vile niall.
it was so dramatic, I still remember the tune of the tone, as well as the body bags,
From when I've started watching, the stand out episodes have been the Bus Crash and the Esther centric suicide episode. The suicide one nearly made me cry, and I don't think I've ever cried watching a soap!
it was so dramatic, I still remember the tune of the tone, as well as the body bags
That is one of the most haunting things I've ever seen on TV. Ever :eek:
I might have had something in my eye at EE, Danielle's death...might, I said!
I've gotta go back and watch these Dog episodes. Looks like I've missed some real drama, only getting into HO just now. I need to sort this out, pronto!
Warren Fox's "death" in the Loft (much better name then Chez Chez) fire was fantastic first time round and then the flashback was even better and HO at it's very best!
One thing you can't deny about HO when they have a disaster they kill of many characters, sometimes major unlike other soaps. Eastenders Vic fire which saw no deaths despite many characters being axed for being deadwood.
I agree, the not knowing who it would be (well we did but you know) and the music they played in the background was so eerie. Absolutely perfect! Made me cry loads and it was just shocking, you just didn't really believe it was going to happen
And when both the Burton sisters died and when Zoe phoned that guy and you just hear his phone go off in the body bag, that was horrid.
that was the most upsetting part, it was great they way you seen the 5 body bags then they show the story kept you wondering the whole episode
Indias murder was the last 'serious' studentt story and all her friends had left by then. If Annalise or Ash had been murdered by Silas this group could''ve been used alot moer as serious characters.
